b"Many people know Bruce Lee as a martial artist and film star. But he was also a\\xa0 philosopher, who articulated\\xa0principles that apply beyond engaging in artful combat, to grappling with life itself.\\n\\nShannon Lee, daughter of Bruce Lee, caretaker of his legacy, and author of Be Water, My Friend: The Teachings of Bruce Lee, unpacks those principles on today's show. We begin our conversation with what Shannon remembers\\xa0of her late father, and how she discovered the power of his philosophy after sinking into a depression following\\xa0the death of her brother, Brandon Lee. We then dive into some of the sources of Bruce Lee's philosophy, his reading habits, and what books he kept in his extensive library. Shannon shares the story behind how her father first started formulating\\xa0his ideas around becoming like water, how he engaged in forms of moving meditation, and what you can learn from his journaling\\xa0practice. We end our conversation with the resilient, proactive way Bruce Lee responded to a potentially crippling back injury.\\xa0\\n\\nGreat inspiration in this show on what should be every man's ideal: the combination of contemplation and action.\\n\\nGet the show notes at aom.is/leephilosophy."
